I got it fixed awhile ago,went to cleveland and got it done for $150 with glass,internal guts and motor/cable, goes up pretty quick now, with used parts.
found out that this truck's floor is covered from front to back in 1/4 steel when i went to drill a 9/16 hole for my 4 guage wire going to the amp for my subs, took me about 10min with a craftsman 1/2 drill only drawbacks i found so far is the 10 bolt front and rear, but they do have posi's equipped. I think im going to go with a 6" suspension lift, then if i want additional lift i can do a shackle flip then put helpers and a zero rate spring in front to give me the option to move the front forward/back 1.5 |
